10 luxury bedding options to make your bedroom feel like a five-star hotel

Getting into bed at the end of a long day is undoubtedly one of life’s greatest joys and only made better when sinking into crisp, sumptuously soft sheets. When it comes to buying luxury bedding, there's a lot to consider. Linens are something you’ll use daily, wash continuously, yet they need to last a lifetime.

Unbeknown to most, a higher thread count doesn’t actually equal a superior product. What matters is the quality of the yarn. Thread count simply reflects the number of threads in a square inch of fabric, so if you’re a hot sleeper, go lower and if you like to be cosy, go higher.

Always opt for either natural linen, cotton or silk. Think about your lifestyle - do you have your fabrics laundered? If so, cotton and silk is fairly unbeatable when pressed, but if your iron has been relegated to the back of a dark cupboard, linen is perfect with its rustic, crushed-on-purpose aesthetic.

Considering all these factors, we’ve created the Bazaar edit of the best luxury bedding brands to invest in now and love forever whether you’re after patterned or plain, soft or textured…
